DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bideford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
